This project aims to acquire data that spans various scales from cities, areas, shops and machinery, etc. and solve the problems existing there by returning the results of analysis and processing of the data to users, residents, business operators and local governments. We also aim to establish a technological, economic and social ecosystem including technologies and institutions necessary to develop those functions and properties. In particular, the objective of this project is to analyze the problem solving practically using IoT and AI, and to analyze it across various sciences. Technically, intellectual edge technology for operating AI in the terminal equipment, basic technology for distributing sensor data on a large scale, and processing of multiple data streams integrally to produce highly value-added information Data analysis technology and others are targeted. Economically, when assuming the distribution of information to be produced through the market, there are mainly research methods such as the method of technically creating such a market, asymmetry of information, the price determination mechanism of information, etc. . In accordance with these issues and themes, students and faculty members belonging to different master's research societies will share the research results of each other and advance the practice of research results in society.

This academic project （AP） makes use of research methods proper to humanities in order to examine cultural issues that our societies face in the processes of globalization. Putting a focus on 1) language expression, 2) thoughts, 3) systems as research areas, we will analyze theoretically what these issues mean for a human subject and study practically how they can be resolved through the redesign of systems.
Among many challenges raised in contemporary societies, transcultural phenomenon will be an important research topic in this academic project. This phenomenon appears on an individual and a collective level, taking various forms. It can be observed in the relation between a person and his/her native language(s), or between immigrants and host societies for example. Problems raised in such a situation lead us to think seriously about how to design and construct a new relation between individuals and groups or communities.
To tackle this challenge, we specifically pay attention to research areas in which humanities approaches are appropriate, like literature as a form of language expression, or philosophy and thoughts. Methodologically, we investigate the meaning of the human experiences in contemporary societies and cultures from the standpoint, not of “explanation” (Erklären), but of “comprehension” (Verstehen).
It should be added that the social and cultural experiences mentioned above occur beyond the existing social or political frameworks because of globalization in process. This requires also rethinking of systems in order to handle the problems of language, nationality or immigration. These practical issues are also taken into account in this project.

Over the more than 20 years since the beginning of the popularization
of the Internet, society has come to depend on it. The Internet is much more than just a digital technology, it has become one of the key elements of the infrastructure on which our society is built. Thus, it is important to consider operations and applications of the
Internet with respect to global relationships, law, ethics, and society. In this academic project, we'll study the social aspects of
the Internet and support the sound development of the Internet.

This research project focuses on the technologies and societies basis on the internet.

In the technology side, we are implementing and demonstrating for the application and development of protocols and systems, Communication System, Distributed Computing Environment, Web Architecture, Sensor Networking Technologies, Big Data System, Internet of Things and Future Internet Technologies.

In the social side, we are discussing the new rules for AI era as well as considering "How to create the future society" through internet researches and practicing the ideas.

This research project is cooperating with the class of postgraduate course (Mobile wide area network), various labs in SFC laboratory (ex. Internet Research Laboratory, Auto-ID Laboratory, etc...), global standardization body (ex. IETF, W3C, ISO, etc...) and companies or other universities domestically and overseas.

As networking has progressed, the concept of “Platform” has attracted attention as a keyword to solve problems of society. The platform is a base where reciprocal action of various entities will be revitalized and is also an object to be designed. In this study project, we will explore the concrete measure to design and construct an effective platform by integrating verification, practice, theory study, etc.
The field of study covers, regardless of profit or non-profit, business model, regional construction, revitalization of traditional industry community health, agriculture and information society. The mutual keywords are; network, information, sociality, and feasibility, innovation.

Under the theme of "Data Science and Society," this workshop aims to deepen students' understanding of evidence-based problem solving by using data science methods to address social issues of interest to them.
In the workshop, we will mainly have readings and exercises to learn statistical analysis methods, and individual research presentations by the students.

We will engage in empirical and quantitative research on the following research themes: advanced mobility technologies and society, such as automated driving and drones; new social infrastructure development using IoT, such as smart cities, smart mobility, and smart tourism; and integrated mobility services, such as MaaS.

Korean Studies

・For us living in Japan, South and North Korea are literally 'neighbors'. Information about these countries is produced and distributed in vast quantities, including information not necessarily academic or authentic. In conducting "Korean Studies" as a study, we must have "discerning eyes" to obtain reliable high-level information.
・What SFC's Korean Language Laboratory has been aiming for since the beginning is the Korean language ability as a research tool, and a comprehensive regional study of social sciences・humanities based on the language ability.
・This AP conducts comprehensive regional research consisting of various fields such as politics, diplomacy, economy・business management, society, culture, language, and history in South and North Korea (and other remote regions).
・We conduct fact-finding research such as various data collection, and interview surveys with emphasis on fieldwork and plan to develop them into joint research with Japanese and foreign research institutions and universities in the future.

・일본에 사는 우리에게 한국과 북조선은 그야말로 '이웃나라'이다. 그 이웃나라에 대한 정보는 반드시 학문적이지만은 않은 정보, 진위 여부도 확실하지 않은 정보를 포함하면 날마다 방대한 양이 생산되어 유통되고 있다. 연구로서의 '코리안 스터디'를 수행함에 있어 우리 개개인이 정보에 대한 '감식안'을 가지고, 신뢰할 만한 높은 수준의 정보를 입수해야 함은 기본이다.
・SFC 조선어연구실이 개설 당초부터 지향해온 것이 연구 도구로서 언어(조선어)능력의 확충이며, 뛰어난 조선어 능력을 바탕으로 한 사회과학계·인문과학계의 종합적 지역연구이다. 이것이 우리가 지향하는 코리안 스터디즈다.
・본 AP에서는 한국과 북조선(및 그 외연지역)을 필드로 하여 정치·외교, 경제·경영, 사회, 문화, 언어, 역사라는 다각적인 분야로 구성된 종합적 지역연구를 수행한다.
・필드워크를 중시하여 각종 정보, 자료수집, 인터뷰 조사 등 실태조사를 진행하며, 향후 국내외 연구기관 및 대학과의 공동조사 연구로 발전시켜 나갈 계획이다.

Rapid progress in information technology has brought about significant changes in various aspects of economics, society and culture. In this academic project, we will work on research in four directions: (1) theory, demonstration, history, (a) policy · management, (c) legal system, ethics, (d) education, practice on media and the network in general. Specific research projects include (1) information law, media literacy, (2) inter-company relations in the information and communication industry, (3) information and communication policy, (4) international comparative research on content policy and distribution . Depending on your research theme, you can start a new research project and proceed with research.
